Ensemble, Culture et Société, 6th Edition

Description

Designed for intermediate French courses, this provocative Ensemble program offers selections from contemporary French documents and media. Each chapter of the three components coordinates thematically and linguistically with the others, but each text may also be used independently. The sixth edition program organizes selections around such themes as family, politics, and the arts, and emphasizes issues of current interest, including urban renewal, immigrant workers, French-Canadian nationalism, and la nouvelle cuisine.
